It’s 2015 and I’ve just picked up my first GoPro-based 360 camera. It’s the Freedom360 F360 Explorer (a mouthful of a name) consisting of six GoPro Hero 4 Black cameras in underwater cases mounted on a cube.

It’s not every day you get to experiment with new forms of media. We’ve seen astonishing new ways to move the camera — from drones to gimbals — that can push the boundaries of photography and videography.

Tucked in the heart of Wyoming, a bit over an hour away from Yellowstone National Park, is the Wyoming Dinosaur Center, a place where tourists are invited to travel back 100 million years and unearth fossils of the grand reptilian creatures who roamed the earth before us.

Tucked just outside of Amarillo Texas is one of the largest canyons in the country, second only to the Grand Canyon. Palo Duro and it’s sister canyons in Caprock, are home to stunning views, outdoor activities and some of the last American bison.
